Women to go on Sex Strike in Response to Brownback’s Bill [View all]
Women in Kansas and around the nation will be holding a sex strike from April 28-May 5, 2012. Governor Sam Brownback has declared himself the master of women’s reproductive systems, with a proposed bill that would allow doctors to withhold information that could threaten the lives of pregnant mothers.
In modern times, sex strikes have been used by women in Colombia, Liberia, Kenya and the Philippines to gain freedom or achieve peace. The Greek anti-war comedy Lysistrata, which was originally performed in Athens, in 411 BC, featured women using sex strikes to end war.
Women who wish to participate in the strike should simply inform their partners that they will not be having any sexual relations until the strike ends. If a partner has any question or complaint, they should call Governor Brownback’s office.
Considering Brownback’s deep involvement in women’s reproductive health, his staff should be very fluent in the language regarding women’s health and should be able to alleviate any concerns that deprived spouses and partners may have.
